| | | NEXT MESSAGE  | | | | | AUTHOR: | maegansmom | DATE: 01/03/04 11:33pm | | SUBJECT: |  feeling trapt | | | I have read so many of these messages. So many of them are so close to my problem yet missing something. So here goes....
I'm 25,have one wonderful child, she's 16 months old. The only true joy I have in my life currently. I'm expecting another child in May. I cant seem to get excited or very connected with this pregnancy. I"m sure once she is here I will love her unconditionally. I just feel so depressed and overwhelmed. I've had problems with depression before. I started out taking Prozac, then went to paxil. When I found out I was expecting again I went cold turkey. I wish I had stayed on the drug buit there was no medical proof that it wouldnt effect the baby. To make matters worse, I cant stand my mate. Nothing he does makes me the least bit happy. He is the father of both children. I dont think that he's helping my depression . I also dont believe it just hormones. I'm so at a loss, I have no idea what to do ?????? I just cant deal with all this at thsi time ??? If anyone has any suggestions I'm searching for some advoce or just a friendly ear.
thanks, maegansmom | |  | |
